BATTLE OF BRITAIN ‘LACE’
Eligible veterans and families are set to receive an increase in financial support when pension payments rise.
Some pension recipients including veterans, their partners, war widows and widowers across Australia will see an increase to their pension payments from 20 March 2024, in line with the pension indexation process.
You don’t have to do anything to receive the payment increase, it will be automatically applied to payments received after 20 March 2024.
Pensions are indexed four times a year on 1 January, 20 March, 1 July and 20 September.
For more information including a summary of pension rates, limits and allowances please visit the DVA Payment Rates page.
